1. i like her outfit

[itsrobert]

2. That's what usually happens

It's called growing older.

[TheWraith]

4. Yeah, but her mother is practically an Amazon, like 5 foot 11 and a little.

And Malia is only just over 13.

[MADem]

6. Her father is a drink of water, himself. I guess tall parents have tall kids! nt

3. Here's a link to the video ....

5. She is in flats. Mom is in heels. She IS as tall. A beautiful family.

[whistler162]

17. Given that her mom is on the pavement and she

is on the sidewalk they do appear the same height.

[AtomicKitten]

7. Malia is taller than Michelle and just as beautiful.

[Aristus]

8. Damn, but there's a lot of elegance crammed into pic #3.

That's our First Family, people!... :applause:

[Tarheel_Dem]

11. Exactly!

:thumbsup:

[Skittles]

9. she is lovely

striking, like her mum

[juajen]

10. I agree, she really is lovely. NT

[Tarheel_Dem]

12. "Almost"? Are you sure she isn't taller? She's wearing flats, and Mom's wearing heels.

[FrenchieCat]

14. Naw.....Malia is stepping on a raised surface; her mom is not.....

they are most likely the same height!

Wait till the braces come off. That gal should be gracing the runways in Italy when she gets older....even if she just does it for a short while! :)

[CTyankee]

22. I was dreading when my 13 year old granddaughter got her braces off!

She seriously looks like a really younger version of Penelope Cruz...

[Tarheel_Dem]

26. Oops! On second glance, you're exactly right. And I know you're right about the runways as well.

:hi:

[JNelson6563]

13. Three beautiful ladies.

Obviously the girls will have much of their mother's grace and sense if style.

[great white snark]

15. Indeed.

What a wonderful first family we have.

[lunatica]

16. And she's how old? 12? 13?

She looks just as stunning as Michelle in that photo.

[JoePhilly]

19. She is 13, born on the 4th of July 1998.

And their daughter Sasha was born in June of 2001. So she is now 10.

My own daughters are 12 and 10. My 12 year old daughter was born in May 1999 (so 11 months after Malia). And my 10 year old daughter was born in November 2001 (about 5 months after Sasha).

So its been very interesting watching my daughters, and also the Obama daughters, as the grow up, over the last 3 years.

[CTyankee]

31. My granddaughters are their age, too! It's great!

My 13 yr. old had her bat mitzvah last June. She did a great job...she really "stepped up" and spoke and chanted Hebrew so beautifully...

My 10 yr. old has that same look as Sasha. She's on the verge, getting bigger, but not yet at that "age." It's lovely...

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

18. Tall and very svelte

It's either a sign of good genes, good eating habits, or both.

[Phx_Dem]

20. I can't believe she's 13. She's grown so much.

She looks fantastic! Love the outfit.

[bigwillq]

21. Beautiful girls.

Dog is cute, too! :)

[Whisp]

23. what gorgeous wymins!

[GoCubsGo]

24. I just saw a clip of the girls and their dad at the books store.

Malia is taller than some of the Secret Service men! Yep. A budding model, for sure. Her little sister is growing like a weed, too.

[ellisonz]

25. If she's got basketball skills...NCAA Women's Basketball watch out.

[Raine]

[Old Troop]

30. As the father of two (now grown) daughters; this is what happens

when you feed them. What a beautiful child!
